Livin' la Viva Las Vegas, Part 3 - Prenups Galore
1am, 4am, 3am, this is my typical sleeping hours during my first week in vegas - you work hard, you play hard (mostly work hard).
Just after arriving in Vegas, I spend the next night taking the first prenup session of Sheila & Mike. Here is the first series of our nights together. This is both work and play for me, since I was touring the spots while at the same time shooting them... what a nice job I have. :)
Title: The Proposal
The Venetian - Gondola Pics
Although I went to Venice, Italy 2 years ago, I've long wanted to see the Las Vegas version, with the ceiling painted to look like a morning sky and the street complete with a flowing river w/ gondolas & everything. I've watched how The Venetian Hotel Resort Casino was made in the National Geographic's MegaStructures episode, but never thought I would personally visit this place.
Title: Two Couples
The Plaza
We also took some shots in the plaza, which is still inside the hotel...
I like to mix posed shots w/ some candid ones. The couple to the left seems to be looking at Sheila & Mike but actually they are looking at a computer screen which is hidden from the camera's view.
Street Scene - Night Lights
After Italy, we went outside on the famous Las Vegas strip. Here we went to 'Paris'...
Title: Lover's Lane
Title: Las Vegas Street Light on a Full Moon
Again some mixture of candid w/ posed shots, this time, Stomp Out Loud sign w/ the guys at the back who seems to be stomping on the stairs
A commercial like picture below highlighting the engagement ring in a romantic fashion.
And a black & white rendering which reminds me of a classic movie...
The last pic below is my favorite. I was able to capture Sheila's best angle on this one.
I am not stingy when it comes to engagement pictorials, especially when it's a mixture of a tour & a shoot of Las Vegas (or any state for that matter). We also had another session outdoors in the Red Rock Canyons and then another one planned for today.
My next post will probably be when I come back to Manila already. I shall return to Las Vegas this November for Sheila & Mike's wedding.
